According to the Roane County Sheriff's Department, the thieves targeted the Spencer and Flatwoods Walmarts. The thefts happened in January and February.

Three people went into the Spencer store, emptied a child car seat box, and filled the box with Apple products. They allegedly did this at the store several times, stealing about $1,000 worth of items each time.

At the store in Flatwoods, deputies say the criminals emptied a vacuum cleaner box and filled it with $2,000 worth of electronics.
